Educate an underprivileged girl child

Impact

Suman was a 7-year-old child without any dreams. Simple joys like going to school and making friends were alien to her. Her father had a damaged kidney and her mother was a daily wage worker. Their extreme poverty neither allowed them to send her to school and nor were they able to fulfill her small needs. RBKS intervened to help enroll Suman in their Boarding School. She was given free access to education, boarding and lodging, uniforms, shoes, socks, and food. With proper support, she now excels in academics and has discovered her talent in dancing. For someone who was a shy insecure child, she now performs the Kalbeliya, which is a folk dance of Rajasthan. You can help give a child her right to dream.

About The Program

Sapna's 'Support the Girl Child' program - 'Pankhuri', currently works with underprivileged girl children from the villages of Kaduki, Vijay Mandir, and Thekra in the Alwar, Rajasthan. Beneficiaries for the program are identified based on their family's economic condition. The girls are admitted to reputed schools and Sapna takes care of all their needs, including school fees, uniforms, books, and transport. The Program Coordinator monitors the academic progress of the girls in the schools. The girls covered in this program report to Vijay Mandir from where they are sent to school in a bus owned by Sapna. After school, the girls come to Vijay Mandir where they complete their homework with teacher assistance, attend library sessions, computer classes, and receive nutrition before going home. Donations made to this program support the cost of education and transport. When you donate to this program, you will support the education of underprivileged girls.
